Description
The choice between speed and capacity is over. Choose both. Traditionally, SSDs have offered powerful speeds and extra features, but at a high cost per GB. Not so with the Crucial MX100 SSD. Leveraging years of R&D and the latest NAND technology, the Crucial MX100 delivers a low cost per gigabyte, combined with unrelenting performance and one of the most complete feature sets available. With the Crucial MX100, boot up and load programs almost instantly, accelerate demanding applications, and encrypt and protect everything on your computer.
Run your system longer than ever before - using less power
With Extreme Energy Efficiency technology, the Crucial MX100 is up to 89% more energy efficient than a typical hard drive
Protect all of your data - even if the power goes out
With Power Loss Protection, if you happen to be saving a file and you suddenly lose access to power, your data will still be preserved
Keep your memories, photos, and files safe
When a photo or file gets corrupted, it often becomes unusable. Prevent this from happening in the first place with the Crucial MX100 SSD, which arms every storage component with four layers of Exclusive Data Defense to guard against corrupt files
Push your drive to the limit and avoid overheating
Adaptive Thermal Protection technology enables the Crucial MX100 to dynamically adjust storage component activity based on how you're using the drive, allowing your system to stay cool and react to changes in use.
Unrelenting performance. Top-notch security
Boot up almost instantly. Load programs in seconds. Accelerate demanding applications. And encrypt and protect your data with no loss in performance.
Save and transfer files in seconds rather than minutes
Our exclusive Native Write Acceleration technology spreads the drive's workload across several elements, enabling you to write data in seconds rather than minutes.
Get best-in-class hardware encryption
Keep personal files and sensitive information secure from hackers and thieves with AES 256-bit encryption - the same grade used by banks and hospitals. The Crucial MX100 is one of the only drives available that meets Microsoft® eDrive®, IEEE-1667, and TCG Opal 2.0 standards of encryption.
Attain consistently fast speeds without compromising the reliability of your data
Our engineers created RAIN technology to protect your data at the component level, similar to how RAID is used with multiple hard drives. This enterprise-class technology increases the security and protection of your data to a level that's rarely available in consumer-class SSDs.
